The Internet of Things will create a ‘world of perfect knowledge', which will drive adoption of artificial intelligence and have a profound impact on white collar jobs. Complexica CEO Matthew Michalewicz said the cost reduction of sensors, transmission rates, and computing power are leading to ‘sensorisation’ of the world.
“You’ve got entire cities being built that are sensorised from the ground up as they’re constructed, sensorisation of traffic flows, sewage water, and of how full a trash bin is, for example,” Michalewicz said at the recent Digital Strategy Summit in Sydney. This is an enormously powerful trend, and I believe we will enter a world of perfect knowledge in the not-too-distant future because of the sensorisation of all the things around us.”
